Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Agatha Crumm was a newspaper comic strip by Bill Hoest (creator of The Lockhorns) published by King Features Syndicate. It debuted on October 24, 1977 and ended in 1996.The title character, a little old lady named Agatha Crumm, was the head of her own cookie company, making all kinds of business deals and looking for ways to make more money. Her employees were largely incompetent, earning Agatha's wrath.Joining Agatha in her escapades was her family: her son Junior, Junior's wife and Junior's impressionable daughter Bunny; two beautiful secretaries, Winsome and Harriet; Schneider, a Mad Scientist and researcher for Agatha, and physician Dr. Bernhang.Three paperback books were published in The '80s collecting select Agatha Crumm comic strips. Full reprints have yet to be seen. |

Gleeful and Grumpy Pairing: Agatha Crumm is the dour and pessimistic head of a large corporation, while her personal assistant, Winsome, has a bright smile and cheery demeanor. |

Skeleton Motif: Played for laughs in one comic strip when Agatha had to identify her own limousine among many. Hers had a skull and crossbones flag flying from it! |
